This Belted Kingfisher has picked a very good spot at the late afternoon buffet. These guys are a blast to watch. Peace! ✌️ #birds #birding #kingfisher #BirdOfTheDay #TheDivers #peace

I'm not sure how the great-crested grebe's foot structure helps it have success as one of #TheDivers but it obviously works!

A rather grainy photo of this beautiful bird with an unusual foot that looks like three elongated fall leaves.

This foster tern is one of #TheDivers for today's #BirdOfTheDay, getting ready to head straight down off #CapeMay on the #JerseyShore this past June.

Here's a hard-working double-crested cormorant skimming waters off the Rhode Island coast.

A double-crested cormorant, a black bird with a sharp yellow beak, skims over gently rolling water, which forms the background. The bird's feathers are messy and askew, and there is a large splash in the water behind it.

For #TheDivers theme of #BirdOfTheDay, I think a Red Breasted Merganser at an abstract distance, on Georgian Bay, Ontario.

For #BirdOfTheDay theme #Thedivers One of my favorite things is finding a group of Pelicans feeding. I was lucky enough to spend two hours shooting a colony feasting in half moon bay Oregon a couple months ago #Birds #Wildlife #Nature #EastCoastKin #Photography #Birding #NaturePhotography

Helen say let’s celebrate #TheDivers for #BirdOfTheDay today, any diving bird.

Brown pelican, Florida Keys.

A brown pelican is seen diving towards the water, beak inches above going in, body and an almost but not quite 90 degree angle. Frame is filled with greenish water and bright sky at the very top.

photo of a female merganser zooming through the water of a river. she is moving to the right of frame. the water is displaced in a clear tunnel over her head and shoulders, breaking into a splash over the rest of her body and behind her.

Black Guillemot, Isafjordur, Iceland, July 2026
#birds #originalcontent #photography 📷🪶

A Black Guillemot floats on the water. Although it's called a black guillemot, this one is more of a very dark brown with a large white wing patch and bright red legs, one of which can be seen trailing behind in this photo. The eye and beak are black, making this a very dark bird except for the white and red accents.

A Cormorant from the archives I was able to get close to before he took off.

For today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #TheDivers & Alt #BirdStare, here are 2 Brown Pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis) at a beach-based fish market in Manta, Ecuador. Fishing boats anchor offshore, fish are brought to the beach on small boats & cleaned right there on the beach. Birds get an easy meal!

Photo of 2 large birds looking down over the dge of a metal roof where they are perched. The birds are mostly brown with whitish underbellies. They have very long tan beaks and they are holding their wings out for balance. White sky is behind them and beams & dark shadows are under the roof.
